Safety and Efficacy of CJ-50300 in Healthy Volunteers

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Smallpox
Interventions
Biological: smallpox vaccine CJ-50300
Registration Number
NCT00607243
Lead Sponsor
Seoul National University Hospital
Brief Summary

The currently available stock of smallpox vaccine would be insufficient in the face of an incident of smallpox attack. Thus, new manufacturing methods for smallpox vaccine are urgently needed because previous manufacturing methods using calf lymph are no longer acceptable in the view of current standards. Recently, CJ corporation in Republic of Korea has developed cell-culture derived smallpox vaccine (CJ-50300) which was manufactured by infecting MRC-5 cells. The aim of this clinical trial were to assess safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of CJ-50300.
